So many lovely bikes on this thread. The red Kona looks like a fun time. 

Here's a classic tree lean at the bike park again (I'll try and find some scenery when it's warmer). It's a slimmed-down mullet Moxie with new 2.35 rubber:

Guy at work: "Hey have you ridden that new double-black-diamond in Squamish yet?"

Me: "Bitch!?  I'm on a hardtail with a 68-degree HTA!  You want me to keep coming to work or not?"

I’ll donate my old. -2 angle set. You’ll be slaying double-black-diamonds in no time

Cool stop sign!  Where is that?  I need some of that climate in my life right now.

Salam Alaikum

Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates.   Hitting the 30's C here now.   As of now, I'm not missing Canadian winters.

Oddly I just got a wolftooth geoshift -2 degree headset and it will be installed in the coming week or 2.  I'm sure I will be entering crankworx soon.

Ok, I'll bite - what's the point you're trying to make here?

As long as your seat angle is fashionably steep you’re sure to podium.

Still loving my Canfield! My poor Ripmo AF is being neglected. So much fun! Stole the front wheel off the Ripmo to try a mullet setup, I liked it! Might grab a 29er front wheel soon.

I -2ed my rigid Krampus to 67.5 degrees and it was fine on steeps - it's just a lot slower.  At least the HA doesn’t get steeper with compressions.

Geo is well old skool - I reckon I could get similar on my OG Krampus with a -1HS but the colours and heritage still does it for me.
